Ninja Shuriken is literally translated from sword hidden in the user?s hands. These Ninja Weapons are used for throwing, stabbing and slashing. The Ninja Shuriken is sharpened and can be made from ordinary tools that easily can be found like needles, knives, and nails. however, the traditional ones are made from flat plates of metal. Shaken is taken from the Japanese reference to throwing star. These were designed in different shapes. These are classified into several varieties like: Bo Ninja Shuriken, Stick Ninja Tools, Kurumaken or shape like a wheel and Hira Shuriken. These Ninja Weapons are actually supplementary tools for the sword and other similar Japanese weapons. The art of welding this weapon is referred to as Shurikenjutsu. The art of Shurikenjutsu is considered a secret art because according to Japanese history there were many independent exponents of the skill of throwing long thin objects such as these ninja weapons. Training for this kind of weapon was incorporated in many famous martial art schools. Based on their characteristics Shuriken can be divided as follows: Straight These can be round, triangular, square, pentagon or octagon in shape. However, there are cases when there are two points like Ryobarigata. The weight depends on the length and diameter of these throwing stars. Star shapes are easy to make and conceal. This is a Boshuriken and remains famous until today. These consist of a straight iron or steel pike. Boshuriken These are four-sided but, can be round or octagon in shape. Some versions have points on both ends. This is not a Kunai that is used basically for stabbing and thrusting. Bo-Shuriken comes in different forms. These are thrown in various ways such as underarm, sideways, rearwards, and overhead. In each of these cases, the blade slides out of the hand through the fingers in a smooth controlled flight. Hira-Shuriken This resembles the popular concept of what this weapon is recognized. These are constructed from thin flat plates of metal derived from different sources like coins, carpentry tools, and even nail removers. These have holes like the ones found in washers. This is convenient for the user since he can easily strung this weapon in the belt when he travels. The aerodynamics and weight effects of carrying it this way make it easy to travel with these Ninja tools. - https://samuraiswords.store/shuriken/ Fred's note: The shuriken was usually molded on to the figure, but these figures came with shuriken accessories. *The Black Dragon Ninja, COBRA Ninja and Red Viper, Storm Shadow, v2 (from Sideshow,) came with six shuriken. !The Night Creeper Leader, v3 and Storm Shadow, v39 came four shuriken. Super7 Ultimates Storm came with three shuriken. %Dice v2 and Storm Shadow v41 and v49 came with two shuriken.

Van Mark XMLR-3A An advanced version of the experimental laser military rifle. The XMLR-3A (from Van Mark Industries,) was a more compact weapon that its predecessor in the field, the 1A. Designed to be a different type of weapon, the 3A sacrificed some of the power of the 1A to make a more flexible weapon, which no longer required a backpack power source. The rifle was again tested by the G.I. Joe team, but while the 1A was used by an engineer (Flash), the 3A was tested by Snow Job, one of the team's most skilled snipers. Other models followed, but laser rifles have yet to be made cost-efficient enough to use in general combat situations. - https://forums.yojoe.com/showthread.php?t=79808

It's got the stock of the G3, the upper receiver of the SCAR, pistol grip from the M249, the chubby handguards from the M4 is sticking out of the receiver for some reason, the trigger guard's from the M1,the front sight is from the Kalashnikov but lying on it's side incorrectly, there's the release for Kalashnikov magazines on the bottom, but why if the gun uses lasers?...but the worst, the worst is the bolt handle's sticking out the side, further the cut out for the SCAR's charging-handle's right over it, ouch |
